From: <Gene_Gaunt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Would I break any licenses or copyight rules if I simply RNMOBJ the > original QSYS service program, then install my copy of my service program > into QSYS library These questions are among the most difficult to find a good answer to. IMHO, anything that takes money out of IBM's pocket might by IBM be construed as infringement. If it does not hurt IBM, you probably will be OK. A related problem is this: If IBM would object to replacement of one program, how about to replacement of ALL programs? I mean, I buy an AS/400. Then I completely remove OS/400, replacing it with my own operating system. Is that infringement? If I buy a PC with Windoze preinstalled, then rip out Windoze replacing it by Linux, can Big Bill sue me for infringements on his rights? This discussion might not belong on the MI list, but I will let it pass because we are, after all, concerned with low-level details.
